Grassing of the first 5 holes is moving along quickly. We now have the green complexes on Palmetto 1,9 2,3 and 4 completed with Tif Tuf Bermuda sod. Having the putting surfaces wrapped makes for a great look prior to planting the greens. When the gray sand based putting surface is wrapped with green turf, it really shows the unique shapes and undulations the putting surfaces have. We continue to track well on our timeline of having all the green complexes ready by July 4th. The team from TDI is well on their way to having Palmetto 5 ready for grass and 6-8 won't be far behind. We plan to sprig all the greens the same day the week after July 4th.
Sprigging of the fairways on Palmetto 2, 3 and 4 is now complete and the team has begun the final prep work on numbers 1 and 9 in preparation for sprigging soon. TDI has also completed the sod work around the tees on Palmetto 1-4 and have plans to grass number 9 early next week.
Meanwhile, the shaping team is hard at work on Palmetto 6 getting the green complex roughed in before moving to 7. Ron, our shaper, should be completed with the green complexes by the end of next week.
